Korea Baseball Team So Bad Its 'Fans' Are Actual Robots

(NEWSER) – If you're a fan of the Hanwha Eagles, you can be a part of the crowd without even going to the game.

The fan, meanwhile, watches the game on a smartphone and controls the robot remotely. And if she wants her presence felt at the stadium, she can upload an image of her face onto the robot's head.
